Chapter 132 Escape! [3]
Chapter 132 Escape! [3]
[You have activated The Wild Rider's Mystic Effect: Speed Demon!]
Zoom!
Once Rex activated this mystic effect, the mystic bike reacted like a Bull on steroids as its performance on literally every parameter increased exponentially.
With this sudden performance increase, it sped forward rapidly, enabling Rex to keep up with Aragorn who rode the other bike like a maestro.
The Wild Rider had only 3 mystic effects but they were all useful and self-explanatory. The Speed Demon when activated increased all the bike's parameters with a bigger focus placed on its speed.
As for the Wild Rider effect, when activated, the bike becomes extremely wild and was perfect for riding through rough and dangerous terrain.
For the last of them all, the Nitro Demon when activated makes the bike like its name, it becomes a Wild Rider on a nitro booster.
With the Speed Demon activated, Rex could barely control the bike not to talk of paying attention to the Kamaitachis. He and Aragorn were completely focused on escaping, fighting was left to the Elven Princess and Grey.
Despite the speed of the 2 mystic bikes, after Grey's recent upgrade, the Dark Mist Spider was a real speed beast too as it was able to keep up.
Together, they rode with speed, rapidly escaping the territory of the Kamaitachis even as these tenacious beasts never gave up pursuing them.
From this distance, they could still hear the angry roars of King Kama Itachi of the Kamaitachis as the Elven King stayed steadfast in holding him back.
The battle of these 2 Super mystic powerhouses already changed the terrain. They were like bulldozers while everyone else in the battlefield were bicycles, the difference in strength was as vast as the ocean.
Queen Galadriel became the greatest help to their escape hope as with the 2 Wild Riders, Aragorn and Rex were able to ride to safety after 40 grueling minutes.
Corpses of Kamaitachis were left in their trail courtesy of Princess Elanor and Grey who were both out on a vengeance journey.
Despite the grueling journey, they finally got to their destination. On seeing the familiar jump portal, Aragorn and Rex heaved a sigh of relief.
Without hesitation, they activated the mystic bikes' greatest mystic effects.

Instantly after the nitro boosters were activated, the mystic bikes emitted fire from their exhausts as their speed increased more than 5 times. Rex only saw the wind as the bikes rapidly accelerated to the location of the portal.
They didn't even stop to look back as both bikes drove into the portal. Before the bikes could fully enter, Rex did an experiment and briefly brought out one of his most important inherited mystic treasures.
With the mystic treasure, he was able to catch and seal one of the pursuing Kamaitachis. He jumped through the portal with the sealed beast.
Grey jumped in after them.
As they were engulfed by a white light that sucked them in, Princess Elanor was the only one that looked back at her home with a bitter-sweet smile.
"I'll definitely come back one day!" She declared. "I'll lift the curse!"
Bzzz!
The 2 mystic bikes and transformed beast disappeared the next moment, leaving the pursuing Kamaitachis frustrated as they roared angrily while attacking the small portal to no avail.
…
Bzzz!

He was able to jump out on time though as the mystic bike fell down. On landing, Rex looked left and right and seeing that they were complete, he laughed.
"We escaped!"
"Yeah…" Aragorn replied wearily.
"Hiss!" Grey hissed before dropping on the forest floor with a plop, exhausted. They returned back here to meet night due to the contrasting day and night patterns of the real world and the micro world.
None of them decided to stand up immediately as they were exhausted. Princess Elanor was not just physically exhausted; she was also emotionally exhausted as she closed her eyes and let the forest breeze caress her face.
In this rare state of silence, they recovered and like usual, Rex's brain started wandering until it hit a block road. "Huh? Why did my system not notify me of mission completed yet?"
Once Rex thought of this, his eyes narrowed as he referenced the system mission notification again. The main mission objective was Escape and Survive, not just survive, did this mean that they were not safe yet?
Rex's eyes widened the next moment. "Wake up! We're still in danger!"
Almost instantly after he spoke, Rex's heightened senses in the night enabled him to hear the sounds of rustling leaves up in the trees as he sprang up and grabbed Princess Elanor.
[You have activated Special Vampire Ability: Morphing!]
[Morphing Forms available: 1]
[You have transformed into a Half-bat!]
In the micro world, Rex could not do this since it was day, but at night now, not only could he access his full strength now, he could also morph.
Rex flapped his massive bat wings as he barely dodged the daggers that were thrown down from on top the trees, raining down like a hail of arrows.
The specialized mystic daggers were powerful enough as they destroyed the mystic bike that he rode out of the micro world.
Instantly after Rex felt alarmed, Grey felt it and woke up. Aragorn also woke up once he yelled danger as his Blood Pistols roared, shooting down the daggers that were about to impale a thousand holes into his body.
The ambush was well executed, unfortunately, they were up against Rex and the other 2 warrior monsters, none of them were injured from the sneak attack.
As a half-bat now, Rex's eyes were superhuman as he peered through the veils of darkness. The familiar scene that he saw chilled and angered him, assassins in black cloaks, black hats, and black masks perched on the trees.
"Scorpion!" Rex's eyes narrowed as his blood flow rate increased.
Instinctively, he searched for the Sting Assassin but he was nowhere to be found. Instead of the Scorpion, he rather saw another familiar face, Arthur Holmes.
Seeing this face, Rex felt a strong urge to go on the offensive and eliminate him but he was able to hold himself back. Common sense reminded him that he was exhausted and not at his best right now, escaping was the more logical option.
"Escape!" Rex roared.
Aragorn did not hesitate as he pounced on one of the mystic bikes but fire came from on top the trees, burning the bike and turning it to wreak. Aragorn barely dodged the fire attack on time and kept himself.
"Princess Elanor, pull your weight, we need to escape!"
"We have 25 assassins currently after us, all Intermediate mystic warriors".
As Rex through his incredible eyesight gave information, Princess Elanor and Aragorn finally understood the enemies that they were up against as they instantly reacted, retaliated, and started their escape at the same time.
Aragorn and Princess Elanor were not just incredibly familiar with the Great Forest of Elias, but the Elven Princess also had a mystic ability related to plants.
With her Plant Control mystic ability, Princess Elanor soon took center stage as the trees, grass, and weed started bending to her will.
The trees that the assassins perched on opposed them and attempted to strangle them to death. These originally docile trees became even greater assassins as branches aimed to impale them to death.
The assassins were briefly distracted by this, and they could not react as Golden metals started flying everywhere like bullets from a machine gun.
Princess Elanor was not alone. Even as Aragorn deployed mechanic devices to hide their trail, his Blood Pistols started roaring again as he aimed at the assassins. In no time, 3 assassins were killed.
By now, Rex already confirmed that the Sting Assassin did not tag along for this attack. Arthur Holmes was no weakling though as he led the assassins to attack.
Their formation was compact and extremely lethal, but once again, when he thought he already overestimated Rex, he discovered that he actually still underestimated him again.
Grey started a rampage again, providing the perfect ground for his master and his 2 companions to escape. Grey ran after them later on as the assassins pursued, a great pursuit started in the forest.
The force of the assassins was the superior but they were not the better party here. Rex and his 2 companion's superior familiarity with the forest enabled them to play their enemies like this was a mere board game.
They sustained even more injuries from the assassins but after 2 hours, what mattered was that they were able to lose them and escape.
By now though, they were all exhausted including Grey. They all fell down on the forest floor completely spent, this was when Rex's system lit up a notification.

Rex smiled on seeing this. "Finally!"
He could not keep his consciousness though, he fainted.
